In Concert

HISTORICALLY and technologically-displaced ritual with unchanging regular-as-clockwork format; Band Everyone’s Talking About gets one hour (or thirty minutes of a shared slot, depending on their relative status) to cram in as many of their as-yet unreleased compositions as they can, ‘serious minded’ presenter makes a few largely uninformative scene-setting comments at start and end, onstage ‘patter’ largely edited out, inattentive fans spend years trying to track down someone with a wobbly C60.
